[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My goal is to get some protein at every meal although I don’t reach 100 grams. Where did you come up with that number? Dr Google says I (120 pound woman) should eat 43 grams of protein. Just curious.[/quote] I think that's not enough for most people over 50. People who exercise regularly, particularly weight train, need more still. The recommendation I read for women over 50 who weight train is 1.5-1.7g per kilogram. So, if OP is over 50, 120 pounds, and weight training, she needs ~ 80-90g; if she's 150 pounds, she needs ~ 100-115g. That said, there are many, many different views on how much protein we need. I'd say try it and see how you feel. [/quote]
